They look for an assaulted woman and instead find a drug dealer . It happened in Sassari, in the historic center: the police officers arrived in via San Donato, having received a report of an alleged assault against a woman . No trace of the woman while, on the other hand, the police officers noticed five non-EU citizens who were trafficking around a car and who, at the sight of the police, moved away. All except one who, the officers discovered, had hidden in the rear wheel of the car over 60 packages, with 15 grams of heroin, 5 of cocaine plus hashish , all packaged in various colors, and over 415 euros believed to be the proceeds of drug dealing.

Arrested by the police, the man, a 34-year-old Nigerian, was taken to court this morning for a summary hearing on charges of possession and dealing in drugs . For him, assisted by the lawyer Elisabetta Udassi, judge Silvia Masala ordered the validation of the arrest, the obligation to sign and to remain at home.
